in the one hand he is carrying a stone[*]. while he shows the bread in the other. I trust no person, who, rich himself, is exceedingly courteous to a poor man; when he extends his hand with a kind air, then is he loading you with some damage. I know these polypi[*], who, when theyve touched a thing, hold it fast.
MEGADORUS
Give me your attention, Euclio, for a little time: I wish to address you in a few words,
about a common concern of yours and mine.
EUCLIO
(aside.)
Alas! woe is me! my gold has been grabbed from in-doors: now hes wishing for this thing, Im sure, to come to a compromise with me; but Ill go look in my house.
(He goes towards his door.)
MEGADORUS
Where are you going?
EUCLIO
Ill return to you directly, for theres something I must go and see to at home.
(He goes into his house.)
MEGADORUS
By my troth, I do believe that when I make mention of his daughter,
for him to promise her to me, hell suppose that hes being laughed at by me; nor is there out of the whole class of paupers one more beggarly than he.
(EUCLIO returns from his house.)
EUCLIO
(aside.)
The Gods do favour me; my propertys all safe. If nothings lost, its safe. I was very dreadfully afraid, before I went in-doors! I was almost dead! (Aloud.) Im come back to you, Megadorus, if you wish to say anything tome.
